Fishing and demolition

These two have found a love in out wide open spaces of Mississippi

We stopped and got crickets before heading to Mimi's lake house.

We put up the hammock and Momma and Daddy got to work.  Me pulling off the lattice work and Daddy helping the boys fish.

Luke's face says it all,  what kinda fish is this.  

Noah's was barely bigger.

Demolition came naturally to Luke.

Then we had watermelon break time. 

It must have been so good

Then we hitched a ride.

Crop checking

Earlier in the spring Grana let the boys plant their own cucumbers and sunflowers and they have a weekly checking to see if their crops are growing. And how big they are getting. 

And we checked on this girl today. 

She finally got her immunizations and well Ella her baby girl had to have a bandaid too. 

There were a few tears and suckers and stickers all around. 

Church duds

 I love getting the chance to put Anna's good clothes on her on sundays.  Even though it doesn't last long.  Before lunch we strip down to the diaper and let her eat.  We can only do that at Sissy's house. 

Then we throw it back on for bubble blowing outside.

My mom bought me this chair as a birthday gift and Anna and Luke love it.  They love that it squeaks.

And Luke helped me paint and distress it. 

Vaccinations are not fun

It had to be done and well, we almost made it through with no tears.  Anna would have to wait till next time since she had hives for no apparent reason. 

There were not tears from this guy.  Who watched the needle go into his leg.  He wouldn't look away.

A little Sippi' sittin

And backyard huntin for frogs.

Weekends

Their first swim of the spring/summer

Pops pool never disappoints.

Family dinners.

Happy Birthday Ali

I have especially loved being in town for all the Birthdays that we have missed over the past 3 years and before that.  We got to help bowl a few strikes to celebrate Aunt ali.

Brother and sister.

I loved all the baby holding there was to be done.  

Running for Shelby

Since before we moved back from Turkey, Drew and I have been planning to attend this 5K.  We are thrilled with the turn out and for he planning of our city to support our favorite family.  

they raised over 70,000.00 to help with the medical expenses for Mr. Shelby.

We especially loved catching up with all kinds of friends that we had not send in quite a while.

Tim and Mary saying thank you's.

I love just getting a hug from Mrs. Mary.
